Los Zetas to Priest: "So You Don't Think We Can Kill you"?

Borderland Beat

“They thought that they were going to find information that will demolish my moral authority, but they will not find anything else than the word of Jesus. Hope it is useful”….Stated by Fr. Solalinde after Zetas stole his laptop

oHe
insists that he will not accept a bureaucratic position in the Church

Ixtepec, Oaxaca “Two members of the Zeta Cartel told me here,
inside the shelter: “Do you think that we cannot kill you? We don’t do it
because if we do, the shelter will close and then the migrants will go to other
places, we will have to look for them everywhere! We prefer that they stay here” the catholic priest Alejandro Solalinde Guerra, stated in
an interview. Solalinde is responsible for the shelter Hermanos Del Camino.

“It is different here than in Lecheria (passing point of
immigrants in the state of Mexico). One of those responsible for causing us many problems is drug traffickers. We are not perusing them, because we are not police. I am
not a policeman; I wasn’t placed here to chase drug traffickers. But, they are the ones
that harm the immigrants and I have had to intervene,” he
adds.

The criminalization against the migrants has been very
high. However, one positive change is the PRD town city council has changed their
attitude.

He notes that the PRI government, spread in the media a
very bad image of the immigrants.Central Americans that are passing by the
shelter, are targeted by the government and organized crime groups.

His
computer was stolen

After travelling through Europe for about a month he
returned to Mexico, after receiving 6 death threats on June 9th.The priest is the coordinator of the Human Mobility of
Social Pastoral of the diocese of Tehuantepec, Oaxaca and founder of the
migrants shelter Hermanos Del Camino. He returned to Ixtepec, Mexico on July 12th, to continue
with the defense of the Immigrants.

The day that he returned to that municipality of Oaxaca,
as signal of the territory that he is stepping on and despite that being safeguarded
by police, his laptop computer was stolen.

“They thought that they were going to find information
that will demolish my moral authority, but they will not find anything else
than letter of Jesus. Hope it is useful”, Solalinde Guerra highlights. He mentions
that the most confidential and critical information is on 60 notebooks that are
in a safe place in Mexico City.

The generalized opinion between the people of Ixtepec
about Priest Alejandro Solalinde is positive, although some of them don’t know
much about his work or know the shelter. He is only questioned about the fact he
doesn’t officiate mass.

He will leave the coordination of the pastoral of the
diocese of Tehuantepec. Regarding that, he points out that he will not accept
any bureaucratic or office position, instead he will continue with his mission,
which is greater dignity for migrants.

He explains that security protocol of the shelter was
designed by the United Nations Organization and that he as well as the members of
his work team count with precautionary measures.

There are guards with assault rifles are inside and out
of the shelter. There is a perimeter wall build with church resources and
surveillance cameras. We are still working with the illumination of the train
tracks knows as La Bestia (the beast).

“I opened this shelter as a space for freedom. It is no
use to just turn it into a plain kitchen. They should have their house here,
the house of the migrants, but the security is necessary for now, because if
not the maras, zetas or whomever would get in and we wouldn’t be able to
control that if it is not coordinated with the authorities”, he expose.

He assures that the behavior of the migrants in the
shelter is good; they participate in the cleaning chores and cook, some of them
clean the train tracks, others participate in the construction of the walls and
dormitories. A female group attends the train arrival.

They, he continues, register the people that will stay in
the shelter in a data base with photographs, to have a record of the people
that pass by. That is how is done in the other shelters in the route north of
Mexico. Women separate from men; some that are pregnant decide to stay until
the give birth.

The
joy of not being "essential"

I am intransigent (inflexible) so the police respect the
migrants. But it is also true that we are still in danger; for that reason we
need the police. I would say that our shelter is safer today because it is the
only place where the police can socialize (with migrants) and become aware of the situation, Solalinde
says.

After being in Europe, I realized that I needed to rest.
My nerves were destroyed. I rested, praying comforted me. It is very hard, it
is the cross that I have to carry, but there is no Jesus without the cross, he
shares.

While I was out, the shelter functioned well. The
volunteer team and Medicos sin Fronteras (Doctors with no borders) took charge.
That is when I realize that I am not essential and that gave me joy, he
concluded.

Two videos below depict the journey of the Central American economic migrant. In the moving top video I was struck by "Frank", a bit cocky initially, but he melts by emotion when describing the journey migrants make, "porque es duro, es duro" (its hard) says Frank, as he dissolves into tears....Paz, Chivis

The USA (until Obama) was the bastion of freedom and hope around the world. It became that way because men were willing to fight and die to free oppressed people around the world. Not to conquer but to fight dictators and despotism. Now these so called migrants want to come to the US (illegally) and bring their 3 rd world lifestyle with them. They do not want to assimilate or become a part of the US but be whatever they were and where'ver they came from here.

They won't fight for their freedom but hide in the kitchen of those who do fight and die. They must return home and change the destiny of their homelands. This is the home of the free and the brave, no room for cowards here. The padre needs to tell them to go home. The journey is frought with evil and dangerous men. He is facilitating their demise.

@8:58.p.myou say migrants come to yourcountry and you don't like that The reason the migrants comeTo your country is becausethey had a dictator Efron Mont.Guatemala was basically like Iraqin 1980s. But there's no more of himI think they left and go to Americabecause there's Freedom hereAnd there wasn't freedom in therecountry just guerilla war betweenGuatemalan Rebels and the Armythat murdered the indigenous people.That's why migrants come to ourCountry because there ether tryingto flee there oppressors orJust trying to have a better lifeFor there familys. -Al quds GOD BLESS.

I THINK ALL ZETAZ&GOLFAGz WORSHIP SATAN SHIATAN EL DIABLO ECT.ITS CLEAR IN THENARCO VIDEOS HOW SATANIC THE ARE.I THINK THEY STILL PRACTICE ANCIENT AZTECS /MAYANS HOW THEY PREFER TO CATCH /CAPTURE THERE ENEMIES in battleand sacrifice them brutality to sun gods?BUT IN MODERN DAY SATANIST MEXICOJUST CHOP YOUR HEAD OFF AND THE SUNGODS ARE JEFES.I REMEMBER HEAREINGABOUT HOW ANCIENT AZTECS SKINED THERE RIVALS ALIVE AND WARE THERE SKINAS A SWEATER. Don't get me started on El Chapo He's a Satanic IdolLike mal Verde and Santisima muerte cult no one. Safe in MexicoWhen you got satanic murders walking the streets.

@8:58 who's cool aid are you drinking? Fighting for freedom? Last time I checked we went into iraq for other reasons than freedom. By the way, central america wouldn't be such a mess if it wasn't for american interest intervening with its affairs. Have you heard of school of the americas?

Iraq is free of Sadam Hussein today because of us. Better off than before. And the war was fought to deny terrorists a base to operate and fly passenger planes into our cities. Central america mexico and south america are in the state they are in because of unchecked and rampant corruption that only the citizens of those countries can fix, not the USA.

"They won't fight for their freedom but hide in the kitchen of those who do fight and die. They must return home and change the destiny of their homelands. This is the home of the free and the brave, no room for cowards here." big talk from a man that posts anonymously! jajajajaja

"Iraq is free of Sadam Hissein today because of us".. US sounds like a lot of people to me, if ur not in the army, marines or navy u should say US... Don't take credit for something u didn't do... People who actually went to fight deserve the credit... The only reason they went to Iraq in the first place was cause papa Bush was s bitch and couldn't finish the job... So he puppetier his baby boy to do it.. thaat war was a waste of TAX PAYERS MONEYS and not to mention all the soldiers killed for one thing OIL.. IRAQ had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks... And jackass Mexico is north America... Iraq wasn't fought for freedom , that was just propaganda to have everybody inlist... Iraq and Afghanistan are still the same messed up countries they were before/after the deaths of Hussein and Osama.. I bet ur some country boy with a lot of Coors Light in ur system, rocking a conferate flag?

BB admins not sure where to put this but here isan anti gun state story and probable police corruption. let us the citizens be responsible for our own life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Kidnapping victim found tied up in NYPD detective's garage, sources sayBy Shimon Prokupecz and Gus Rosendale, NBCNewYork.com

NEW YORK -- An NYPD detective has been suspended without pay after a kidnapping victim was found tied up in his Queens garage, sources tell NBC 4 New York.

Sources say Ondre Johnson, a 17-year veteran of the Brooklyn North gang unit, was being questioned by internal affairs about his involvement in the kidnapping of a 25-year-old victim off the street early Friday morning.

Sources say a demand for a $75,000 ransom was made.

Police tracked the victim to the house in St. Albans off the victim's cell phone pings.http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/07/28/13012288-kidnapping-victim-found-tied-up-in-nypd-detectives-garage-sources-say?lite

I used to work with Iraqi refugees. Iraq is now a hell hole of ethnic cleansing and misery. Turn off idiotic FOX news and pull your head out of your ass.

To the idiot blaming school of Americas for Latin America, you are an idiot drinking the koolaid. I worked sog soa early 90 and all it was doctrine. It is the same greedy lazy bastards within these countries That doom themselves not the US. Go hug obama and lick his balls but shut the fuck up if you don't know anything about what it takes to give you the freedom to post anything you wish.

911 was an inside job. Follow the money. The man who rented the two towers for 15 million dollars was paid 4 billion in insurance when they rigged in a controlled collapse.

Look at footage of the buildings collapsing and you will see systematic explosions causing a controlled implosion. Before they fell a man came out of the BASEMENT and said there was an explosion in the basement and helped a man out. That same man "committed suicide".

Iraq had nothing to do with it, but unfortunately for them, they had oil.

My theory on September 11 2001 is this.Early 1990s Saddam invades KuwaitUsama bin laden asks his SaudiPrince brothers if he could send hisTroops to take down Saddambut his Saudi brother said heWould rather ask the Americans/Bushes.Usama bin laden wasn'tA happy camper.I think gorge bush Sienior knew that some pissed offSaudi would eventually attackAmerica. Usama felt betrayed By the Saudi so for the next fewYears he would plan his revenge.in 1996 Usama declare war onAmerica. Who was president at thattime you might ask Bill Clinton.But he was to busy bombing BosniaI think bill knew Usama was planning an attack against us he wasPresident he had to have known But did nothing I wonder whyWas it because he wanted the nextPresident to deal with it.I'm not saying 9.11.01 was an insideJob. because I wasn't there when itHappened. But what I'm saying isThat it all seems to be planed. remember There just theories. GOD BLESS

The Lord God knows the name of every man who has chocen to become a Zeta - and every one who has committed a heinous crime. They will all be called to judgment for what they have done ... not a single soul will go unpunished.

So, you are aware of how some demonic behavior, when it is blatent , to you, but to do nothing to help your neighbor and justify it with propaganda excuses... to me this is just as demonic. How can so many fellow "Americans" be so heartless toward Mexico and latin America. Shame on you. God please free the suffering of Mexico and teach heartless fools to be more compasionate.

There is no God. This is a story made up to control populations through fear. The US has no business in any other country when it refuses to take care of its own people. The US is an empire and nothing less and it will also fall and the people will become slaves. Conservatism lead the way to this happening by shoving religion and legislated morality down the throats of all humans. I personally will be happy to see the US fall.

In1970s Iraq the Land were a Dictator/Saddam was in chargeWere sunis shias and Kurds don't likeeach other.Now today's IRAQ SUNIS SHIAS AND KURDS STILL DON'T LIKE EACHOTHER BUT SADDAM ISDEAD.THESES PEOPLES OPPRESSOR IS GONEBUT THEY STILL FIND A WAY TO OPPRESSEACH OTHER. SAD REALITY. MAY ALLAH/GODAND THE HOLLYSON/JESUS WATCH OVERTHE PEOPLE OF IRAQ AN MEXICOGOD/ALLAH BLESS.

@7/29 2:52PM,Lol...your comment is the stupidest and most ridiculous thing I've read on here! 9/11 inside job? Yea, okay...use that peanut brain of yours...there would have to be literally hundreds of people in on it..the coordination and logistics would be impossible, beside the fact...the main perpertraitors would have to be willing to sacrifice their own lives, so some other dude could benefit from the money? Instead of following the money...try following common sense!

Fighting for your country doesn't necessarily mean going to war. Helping out the poor man who lost his job. Helping the poor child that lost his parents. Being the difference and making in impact in your community is what counts. I'm not knocking the soldiers because I lost a great friend to war, and I really miss him, but how can we tell someone to go back to your country and figure it out? We have a obligation as humans to help others that are in need. We have all the politicians getting free living whe everyone else has to suffer. For people to say to go back to your country and figure it out is terrible! Instead why don't you help that man with 1 of the 50 shirts you own. Give him one of the 3 cars you own!

I was in Idaho Falls yesterday and saw a guy with a dumb look on his face with a Santa Muerte T-shirt get into a car with a big sticker on the back that said "100% Michoacan." (with Idaho plates of course). The Cancer has spread.

Excuse me but Santamuerte is not.like its portrayed. It is a cult ,its complex to understand as i am a believer. But i always keep god in mind first, i do not do no satanic cult do not pray to thwart devil but ask my santa for protection n god for guidance. But since she is a.neutral power in earth, does not know good or bad. It is up to yoh how she is . YOU BELIEVE N DO BAD ,BAD WILL HAPPEN..YOU DO GOOD N BEHAVE GOOD TO OTHERS SHE WILL REWARD YOU WITH PIECE N KNOWLEDGE OF LIFE. HARD TO BELIEVE PEOPLE WILL SAY im crazy. Because it.does sound crazy but its reality.She is the realist thing in this world that.gives you a whole live ahead before she gets you .but to walk you for god to judge you . Hopefully this changes the view towards my santisima muerte. Like my father said to.me"RESPECT YOUR SAINTS. BUT ONLY ADORE GOD."I believe in her because i had n have a hard life. I live in the ghetto half my life n half in Mexico. Trust me shit here could get ur mind fucjked up .u think Mexico is bad ,well the ghettos in the us is the same basically as.Mexico or probably worst trust me. Living in 1 for 11 years I've been victimized since i was 11 lol in 22 now. I had to defend my self to prove i wasn't weak . Constantly jumped for being.Mexican. n now m grown over stupidity. N im going to become a law enforcement officer hopefully once i finish my associates degree in criminal justice.So maybe rethink,not everyone who embraces la santa muerte is a criminal .

@8:03.am. if your saying that LaSANTA MUERTE is a criminal religionYour fucking retarded sure there areSome criminals that worship HerBut look at what happens to themThey die. Because they probablyDid wrong and doing wrong onlyGets you in to wrong situations I believe In God/Allah &La Santa muerte because In my opinion As a human we all must die/DeathAnd when we do we our spirit will goOn a journey to Return to GodAnd on the journey I pray to La Santa Muerte to safeguard me from EvilTrying to entrap me on my journey toGod. So your saying my religionIs a cancer.the way I see it gangs/Mafiaare the Cancer.not my religion.Since you offended me on my religionLet me tell you about your religionYou sound like a Jesus nut.theChristian religion is just about a A super natural Jewish man nailed to a cross. People to day ware a Jesus pieceAround there necks. And not realizeThat they are warring a mini execution device.look at it this way if Jesus diedBy hanging then would people wareA lynched Jesus around there necks.I think we should remember how JesusLived not how he died. Because ifwe only remember how he died likeWareing a cross /execution device Then Jesus wouldn't have any peace.Don't get me wrong I love JesusI just have a different view of himAL-Quds God bless.

People mistake helping economic migrants with the undocumented migrant issue. This is not about that, this is not a legal argument, this is an issue of humanity.

I hope that a few of you will view one of the videos with an open mind and heart. The photo of the 3 brothers is mine taken at the Casa Migrante Shelter in Piedras. Yes I give supplies, and I also encourage their return to their country because of the danger. We offer to pay transportation, and did so for the brothers.

One cannot dismiss humane responsibilty with the excuse of legality.

I am a conservative, I feel the need to tighten our borders because of narcos, but as for economic migrants we are at a net zero. I am in favor of a temp worker program as we had in the 60s.

All that said...this is about people being tortured, killed, extorted, kidnapped forced into slave labor into conducting work such as the sex industry.

The CA migrants are hated in Mexico, and are prey for cartels. and the US dumps them at the Mexican POE knowing they are about to enter into a country in which they are also undocumented and in extreme danger...

I know I am about to get criticized by some of you, and that is fine. I begin my work with migrants 2 years ago after the San Fernando slaughter of 72 migrants. I call it "Project 72"

How anyone can see the photos of the slaughter and dsimiss it as just another issue about "illegals" is beyond me....Paz, Chivis

Your photo of the 3 Guatemalan brothers has been haunting me. (One of the brothers resembles my father, so I guess the photo touched me on a deep level.) I'm happy to hear that they got transportation home. I would like to believe that they made it home safely.

I think you are doing the right thing by helping the shelters and encouraging the migrants to return to their country. I agree with you about the temp worker program, but until it is safe and legal for migrants to cross, it is best that they stay home.

"Constantly jumped for being.Mexican. n now m grown over stupidity. N im going to become a law enforcement officer hopefully once i finish my associates degree in criminal justice.So maybe rethink,not everyone who embraces la santa muerte is a criminal"Brother imma a white boy,and i hope you all the luck in the world.I dont believe in anything,i believe its all up to us as individuals. Anyway,i hope you have a long,safe happy life in your career.Saludos to you senore.Good luck man.

What do you believe inprobably nothing huhThat's Your Right to believe in nothing just like how I have the right to believe in my God/superstition .now Im notTelling people that you have toBelieve what I believe. BecauseYou can believe what ever you wantActually I have a few Friends thatworship Satan but that dosent meanI support Satanism.what I'm tryingTo say is its better to believe inSome thing Than To Believe in Nothing at all.God bless.AL-Quds
